wormy Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 13 minutes ago, Tsunami said: There’s more than a few Chelsea fans who are complaining that we kicked them all over the pitch and that they were playing against 14……doesn’t help when Havertz nearly breaks Burns’ cheek/ eye socket and says his elbow was that high as Burns is 7 or 8 feet tall (so you’re saying you deliberately went in that high?) and we were just trying to foul them all game. The fucking gall. Imagine watching that match and thinking you were hard done by. The idea that they felt Burn or Bruno were worth being booed following the respective 'challenges' on each of them is hilarious. Looks like the fans are unsurprisingly just as big crybaby bitches. Conveniently only remembered that they were champions of europe until the last 4 minutes, too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Absolutely, and plenty of sports already do it. Rugby doesn’t expect referees to guess whether the ball has been grounded amongst a group of 20 blokes. He asks the video official to look for him.

Tisd09 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 The sending the ref over to the screen is nonsense. For penalty and red card decisions I think it should be a matter of course that the ref goes to the monitor and plays a part in the discussion, there are downsides of this of course, one being that more time is used and there are more stoppages, works with rugby but naturally there are more stoppages in the game. The clear and obvious thing is nonsense though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 It does irk me that the VAR panders to the referee on the pitch so as not to be seen as overuling him but if that's the case you'd think the ref on the pitch would relish the opportunity to go to the monitor and ensure he's made the right decision.

The mic doesn't need to be on a live feed to TV or radio but just at certain points where its interesting/necessary to hear. If referees/linesman and all match officials want to remain in a job n the next 10 years with all these introductions of automated officials then they need to get a grip and change how they do things.

He's not very good. Coote was also officiating our game against Villa when the GK took out Wilson and nothing was given, and Villa were given a penalty. Wilson was offside against Villa, wasn't he?

Klaus Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 If we don't get an apology the same way Lampard did, I would suggest there is some kind of corruption involved. Nobody could argue with a straight face, that it wasn't a pen at this stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Ham's pen v us at SJP, Schar getting nothing at Arsenal, Leicester's pen against us, Fraser getting nothing against Man City, ASM getting nothing at Leeds and now that bollocks yesterday.

Bimpy474 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Said it before and I'll say it again. Head of the refs and VAR is one Mike Riley.

Foul on burn not a red card for me as eyes always on ball and no on man, Shearer, Ameobi and Carroll used to do the same thibg every week to win headers. 100% penalty on murphy, can see how coote didnt give pen due to his view being obstructed by 3 players but John Brooks on VAR has massively cocked up by not sending him to monitor Edited March 14, 2022 by NUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is such a thing as peripheral vision. While looking at the ball you can still see an opponent coming from the side perfectly well. If this were not the case nobody would be allowed to drive. Not arguing for a definite red in this case, but keeping your eyes on the ball is irrelevant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anywhere in the law that states that? Always hear about reckless, out of control and endangering an opponent. This is all three of those, isn’t it? Leading with his arm above his head and launching into a challenge he has little to no chance of winning. Seems like a red, to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his post match interview he said his elbow was that high as Burn is 7 or 8 feet tall. So not only did he know where Burn was (and from the moment the ball was in the air), he also knew where they’d meet for aerial challenge. He was looking at the ball but he full well knew where Burn was and jumped with this in mind. IMO he was knowingly endangering another player and should have walked.
